By Ianthé TynesFOR most Bahamians, the term “artificial intelligence” immediately conjures images of ChatGPT, robots or computers replacing jobs,however, before artificial intelligence became a part of everyday conversation, it was already changing the way governments, and institutions operated worldwide. For The Bahamas, artificial intelligence should not be viewed as a distant concept or a passing trend, as it presents a genuine opportunity to modernise government, diversify our economy and better prepare our workforce for the future. Our responsibility is not simply to teach young people how to use artificial intelligence, but to help them understand it. At the same time, our approach to artificial intelligence must be guided by responsibility. The future of The Bahamas will not be determined by the continued advancement of artificial intelligence, as that progress is inevitable.
